The Resistance Banker is based on the true story of the Dutch banker Walraven van Hall (Barry Atsma), a man who, witnessing the holocaust together with the Nazi occupation of his homeland, decides to finance the Dutch resistance with the creation of a shadow bank. Walraven van Hall uses the guise of a charitable fund to help Dutch sailors stranded abroad by the war to launder money into his shadow bank. As the war continues, the needs of the resistance increase. Nazi leaders grow closer to catching van Hall. Van Hall decides to forge war bonds, secretly exchange them for the real bonds at a major bank, and then redeem them for cash at this same bank.
